Washington Letter
our regular correspondent.


Washington, June 5, 1887.
Laborers are at work in one Of the
Court yards Of the Treasury building
excayating for the new vault, for Con-
gless appropriated $27S40. This will
be the largest single money vault
known. 1t is to be large enough to
hold one hundred million silver dol
lars, and its full capacity will doubt
less be tested by the constant accu-
mutation from an annual production
of not less than twenty four millions
Of dollars.
The structure is to be entirely under
ground nothing is to appear on the
surface to appear to indicate the de-
pository of so much wealth. The
vault will be lined with an iron case,
and will be divided into sixteen COM
partmeats separated by iron lattice
partitions There are to be no dark
corners in this building the open lat
tice work is adapted so that the eye
can range through all the compart-
ments at one glance. The entrance
will be through the sub-basement of
the Treasury building, which is at all
times thoroughly guarded, and doz-
en- different men will be required to
open the vault, several series of I'M
locking being necessary, and one
combination lock. All the known
checks and securities will be applied,
and by means Of clockwork and cleo
tricity there will be some Of the locks
which will open at certain hours Of
the day only to the Treasurer of the
United States.
The silver dollars in their new hab-
itation will be piled up in canves bags
holding 81 900 each, one on top Of
other, as is now done in the existing
vaults.
The recent deaths, so close together
OF two prominent journalists, reminds

A Goose Gets Married for Fun.

Notwithstanding the many bad re-
suits of marrying in fun the practice
still goes on, and most probably will
go on as long as human dupes can be
found to keep it up, The latest case
OF this kind that has come to notice
occurred in the town of Tabor,
Mimi, some months ago. A party
OF young folks met at the house
of friend to have a good time.
Among them was Miss Mary
Kovar, local reignnig belle TO tender
years and much beauty. Among
them, also was Charles Vanek, griz-
zled old bachelor. A Justice Of the
Peace was also present, and in spirit
of fun suggested a mock marriage be-
tween Vanek and Miss Kovar, The
suggestion met with much favor, as it
would give tone and responsibility to
the gath ering. The ceremony was
performed and the Justice issued a
certificate. This was all fun, but it
wasn't so much fun when, in few
months afterwards Vanek called upon
Miss Kovar, and insisted that she
should return home with him and be
installed as the Mistress of his shanty.
The young lady became frightened,
denied that she was his legal wife and
said that she was ouly acting in fun
Vanek, however, thinks differently,
and has given notice to all the young
men in the settlement to keep away
from his wife. He proposes to test the
legality of the marriage in the courts.
